328xi Msport MODDING?

ok, so i have a 2013 BMW 328i xDrive MSport in alpine white with coral red interior and i really want to begin modding it but before that I have some questions to ask you guys who are professional with these stuff.

BTW: thats my car http://www.f30post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=738784

Wanted mods & questions:

1) AW painted reflectors - How much will the DIY kit cost and how much will it cost if I bring to body shop and have a pro do it?

2) Tinted windows - My state law is like 70% light in, so how much can i really go to and what will be the cost approximately if i have a pro do it?

3) Coil overs or suspension?!?! Someone tell me whats the good and bad of each and what i should get on my XDRIVE. Also price of each plus labor?

So that's it and thanks for everyones help!

Because that's the only option available right now. xDrive has nothing available for it yet because the model is so new.

Larger brake and rotor kit! The 328 looks funny with 19+ rims and those tinny rotors.

RE: Painted Reflectors - you basically just need to remove 2 screws within the wheel well, so I wouldn't waste money on getting a pro to do it. Its about as easy of an install as it comes. DYI cost is about $90ish (don't remember exact dollar amount) delivered.
